Ben91 Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) Schlein had a big fall out with the promoter and probably won't race for the club again. Â As for Holder's unachievable average, it's for teambuilding purposes only. Teams won't be building to fifty in respect of any mid season changes. Bjerre (while he was available) and any seven point rider would have been a better option from day one than Holder and a two/three pointer though. Not only would they score more combined than Holder and the two/three pointer it would also give Lynn two strong reserves at all times.

Give me Holder who is going to win races any time over Bjerre and any other 7 pointer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any team with any title aspirations needs a top drawer No.1 who WINS races. Â Give me Holder at No.1 and reserve pairing of one of Porsing/Rose/Huckenbeck and a 3ptr any day of the week. Â Didn't Poole win the league with a 6 rider team not long back? If the other reserve is strong (and can take 1 extra ride) then its a gamble worth taking. Â We look STRONG on paper, with Lambert and Holder the strongest top 2 in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trees Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Lambert is good at home but not good away except at Belle Vue.But who knows what he will do this season, he's a rider on the up ...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Therefore R. Lambert and Andersen are evenly matched away from home With bonus points 7.27 vs 6.95 in favour of Hans. So would agree very little in it tbf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Lambert is good at home but not good away except at Belle Vue. Half a point difference between Hans 6.91 and Lambert 6.48 on away averages. so not a great deal in it making Lambert decent on most away tracks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016  They aren't. KK + Andersen & Doyle + Morris are just as strong.  By rankings. No.1s. 1st Doyle, 2nd Holder, 3rd KK and now No.5s 1. Andersen, 2. Lambert and 3. Morris  My rankings are the riders final EL averages of this season. Well your wrong again.  Holder 8.95, Lambert 7.08 = 16.03 Doyle 9.58, Morris 6.41 = 15.99 Kasprzak 7.91, Andersen 7.15 = 15.06  So KK and Andersen are the weakest of those 3 teams. As ive said Pooles heat leaders are ok but its the second strings where Poole should be better than the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert is still on the up though,can't say the same about Hans.Admittedly the league is weak so his average might hold up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Lambert is good at home but not good away except at Belle Vue. Was not impressed at all with Lambert in both his meetings at Swindon this year, will have to see if he improves next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Theoretically Lambert should improve which as British speedway fans we should all hope he does. Â He wasn't too good at Poole last season but time will tell, he certainly has a lot of potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Lambert is still on the up though,can't say the same about Hans.Admittedly the league is weak so his average might hold up. Exactly. 0.07 between them last year. Lambert as heat leader all season and Andersen started and scored heavy from riding at number 4. Â Easier to ride well in a successful team then a struggling one. Â One rider on the way up and one on the way down. Â Would be very surprised if Andersen averages more than Lambert in this coming season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavan Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited)  Gavan.  I have highlighted Lambert and Andersen's away scores riding as a HL  There is nothing in it. Lambert 66+5 and Andersen 67+3 riding as HL's. I didn't add Hans's away scores riding as a second string. yes you did  but as i say one is on the way up and one on the way down. I would expect Lambert to average more than Hans this season in the same way that in 2015 Lambert was lower than Nicholls but last year he went past him as Nicholls got worse.  Hans Andersen isnt going to get any better.......Lambert is and was only slightly behind him last season Edited December 20, 2016 by Gavan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not so sure...  Should be fun to watch! Edited December 20, 2016 by pointsmeanplayoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
